["changelog" (changelog)]

Two new frameworks in this release: KPackage and NetworkManagerQt

### KActivities

* Introducing the ActivityInfo QML object

                values:

### KIO

* Add support for .hidden files, for users to hide some files from views. \
                (feature 246260)
* New method KRun::runService, like KRun::run but returns the PID of the \
                newly started process.
* kioexec: fixed many porting bugs, to make it work again
* KRun::run: fixed porting bug, to make it work again in the case where \
                KProcess is used directly
* KRun: make klauncher runtime dependency optional
* Fix compilation on MSVC
* Performance: decrease memory consumption of UDSEntry
* Actions in popupmenus: in case of multiple mimetypes selected, services \
that support all mimetypes  are now added to the menu.
* New job: KIO::DropJob *KIO::drop(QDropEvent* ev, QUrl destUrl). Replaces \
                KonqOperations::doDrop.
* Restart directory watcher after a failed delete operation
* Fix false warning about X-KDE-Protocols unused in desktop files without \
                that field.
* Merge various settings modules (KCMs) related to kio, into the kio \
                framework.
* When copying/moving out the trash, make the files writable.
* KIO::file_move now does the chmod on the destination file before emitting \
result.

### KNotifications

* Remove NotifyBySound. NotifyByAudio implements the "Sound" notification \
                already
* Fix crash accessing dangling pointer in NotifyByPopup

### KRunner

* Do not detect anything with a '.' as a NetworkLocation (porting bug, bug \

### KWidgetsAddons

KStyleExtensions

### KWindowSystem

* Fix build on FreeBSD

### Plasma-framework

* Let month menu navigate in current year (bug 342327)
* Expose new OnScreenDisplay window type in Dialog
* Migrate Plasma::Package to KPackage
* Fix labels not picking up changes to font settings at runtime
* Fix text not properly updating its color when switching themes \
                (especially dark<-->light)
* Fix placeholder text in textfields being too strong when using a light \
                theme
* Set visibility on mainItem to match Dialog
* Load IconItem immediately upon componentComplete()
* Use the same text colour for comboboxes as buttons
* Performance improvements (less config-file reparsing, use shared \
                config...)
* roundToIconSize(0) now returns 0
* Give undo notifications a title

### Solid

* Enable fstab and upower backends on FreeBSD
* Power: Add aboutToSuspend signal

### Buildsystem changes

* ECM's KDEInstallDirs now provides KDE_INSTALL_* variables.
  Both CMAKE_INSTALL_* variables and the older KDELibs4-compatible
  variables are provided, unless KDE_INSTALL_DIRS_NO_DEPRECATED is set to
  TRUE before the module is included. Even then, the CMAKE_INSTALL_*
  variables provided by the GNUInstallDirs module will still be set and
  understood (for compatibility with that module), unless
  KDE_INSTALL_DIRS_NO_CMAKE_VARIABLES is set to TRUE.

* Add COMPATIBILITY argument to ecm_setup_version().
  Lots of libraries will want to use SameMajorVersion to make sure
  searching for version 1 of a library doesn't give you version 2, for
  example.

* Fix ECMQueryQmake when Qt5Core is missing.

### Frameworkintegration

* Fix handling of palette change events (bug 336813)
